Chapter 122 The Art of Persuasion

“Thank you. The Harrises will always be an ally of the Winstons, Nathael said casually, his expression composed as he clinked his glass against the other man’s.

Yet, his words brought evident delight to Cormill as his smile growing even more genuine. “Mr. Harris, you can count on the Winstons as your friends, and I’m always at your service.”

In the midst of vibrant lights and flowing wine, Maggie handed a generous tip to a waiter and swiftly located Shawn’s position.

Shawn, who was in his late thirties, he could be considered quite accomplished based on his current status.

Maggie stood nearby, recognizing his distinct appearance immediately.

He was of medium height, with a buzz cut and faint forehead creases. He wore a dark suit with a subtle gold pattern. While his face wasn’t remarkably handsome, it wasn’t off–putting either.

His eyes, though calculating, were more attractive than the typical shrewd gaze. With a prominent nose, he balanced aggression with diplomacy. His tanned skin, combined with his expensive attire, exuded a rustic opulence in Maggie’s eyes.

It was the typical attire of a self–made wealthy individual, but Shawn was more than just that.

Lucas had thoroughly investigated Shawn’s background, and Maggie couldn’t help but admire the reasons behind his success.

Capable of adapting to the situation, seizing opportunities, and being ruthless when necessary, coupled with a bit of luck, he had risen to success in just over a decade..

“Mr. Lewis, I’ve heard so much about you.” Maggie smiled, extending her hand in greeting.
